4. It's own twitter, so cool. Robots will rule the galaxy!

Very tricky sky crane landing though, the rover is the size of a small SUV, and humans are out of the loop on the actual landing, good luck robot!

and no solar panels to get dusty, uses a plutonium nuclear battery for power







Even better, its bringing its own drone to fly around!
